I saw the replay on my computer. It looked like perhaps Chelokee didn't change leads until late. Perhaps that's why Zanjero lost the lead after passing Chelokee. Did anyone else see that?

Will have to look at it again, but it seems Zanjero with the awful trip, simply hung. Chelokee regained composure and made up some nice ground at the end. Big props to Michael Matz/ Chelokee.

Good effort, but Chelokee is too slow. . .
